YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Note: It has been confirmed that the distinction between "Firelocks" and "Arms" was no longer in use by the French Revolutionary wars.

When drilling at Fort Laurens, we decided that it would be good fun to change it up a bit and let everyone try their hand at parading the troops. It was great fun, but more stressful than I would have imagined, given that we were so small a group and without an enemy to concern ourselves with. I made a number of mistakes in the field, of varying severity, which would have overall rendered me a fairly incompetent commander. Especially if these mistakes took place during the day's later battle, or with a larger body of troops! -
